Jennie Margaret Edwards - artist


Portrait of Florence Thorneycroft - Commandant of the Staffordshire Voluntary Aid Detachment during the First World War, wearing a Red Cross nurse's uniform - painted by Jennie Margaret Edwards. 

The painting was exhibited at the Royal Academy in 1917.  I am hoping to find further information about the artist.   With thanks to Historian Debbie Cameron for finding this painting.
